...When Raymond Cerniglia's 13-year-old son Matthew developed a rare and aggressive cancer, doctors gave him a 20% chance to live and started an 11-month course of chemotherapy.

...parents didn't do it, who did?" With those words, Louise Woodward came out swinging in her battle with the Eappen family over the death of Baby Matthew. In what she promises will be her only interview, Woodward used the BBC's 'Panorama' program to cast herself as the Eappen's scapegoat: "There was the whole feeling that somebody had to pay and that somebody had to be me," she said.
